Brisby - we are taking the best 6 round results - so you only drop 1.

With 2 rounds to go you are leading class C (2WD Mod) by 6 points over Gareth and you have both had a 0 points round.

Also - you are currently 1 point infront of Scotsman - sitting in 3rd for the outright championship on adjusted points.

In answer to your question a FWD with semi's will put you in 2WD Mod - Class C yes.

Ok, but it doesnt look like there are going to be any other ppl in mod 2wd, so rather then collecting 6 points, or maybe less

Who is running is std 2wd class, Ant and anyone else? There isnt 3 of us so does that mean i may only get 4 points if Ant beats me???

Hmmm decisions, decisions. The MG is lookign good, As i dont want to spend more then $300, and problem is need P/U Sat, drop off Mon

What happened to your car?

The parts to fix the body work have been a bit slower then expected, plus me being in Sydney i have been a bit of a slack ass and the guy fixing the car isnt sure what i want him to be doign with the car...so best wait until im back in VIc and can chase up all the parts that "were meant to be delivered"

Brisby - so far we have that I know of

Class A

Snowman

Scotsman

Class B

Ferni

West

Class C

MSPEC

RowdyR32 (Gareth said he was coming last I heard)

Class D

Ant95gtr

Base Junky

So right now its a pretty even spread. Where are all the 4WD mod dudes? Where's Jack? You need to come back to racing!! Or we need to stick some semi's on Ferni's car.

Go the M3 :P at a measly $1800 for the weekend.

You could get a standard awd and beat me and west and take 10 points.....

Or you could try asking someone else if you can use thier car, and you can just pay them whatever you're going to spend on the rental car :) But would mean you would have to out drive them in thier own car to get 10 points.

    • Fark what are the changes of that snapping like that, clean. Nek minnit, custom radiator goes in, with built in oil cooler like those discontinued PWR ones from yesterdeacades ago
    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
